THE SAVVY SHOPPER

Jeanne Vogt

IT'S HOT AND STICKY...

And here I am shopping at Miromar Mall!! Nine months and waiting....

I went with my friend Helene to Motherhood Maternity Outlet to shop for her cousin who is expecting soon...well, I wasn't "expecting" to find all the things they had in store! I even bought a jacket! Yes! For myself in a maternity store, and remember I am a grandma!! I swear I can shop ANYWHERE!! It is the cutest jacket...red mandarin collar and short...just to the waist...now tell me how is a pregnant woman expected to wear something this short?

The best part is it was on sale for only $9.99!!

They had the cutest bathing suits with long tops and little short bottoms in all colors on a sale rack for $9.99. I wanted to try one on...the perfect solution for hiding a tummy that isn't with child! But I knew my friend Helen would tell everybody I was wearing a maternity suit so I let it pass!!

There were tons of sales going on...stretch Capri's $12.99, cotton rib tanks $7.50, very "IN" sun dresses at $14.99. You can be stylish while you are waiting for that bundle to arrive!

Jean Capri's, $16.99 to $34.99, bra tanks and short sleeve stretch tees $10. Sleepwear from $19.98.

Three big sale racks with just about everything on them, red dots take another 25 percent off, blue dots 33 percent off, green 50 percent off, yellow 75 percent off and black dots 90 percent off!!!

There was a rack of dresses and 2-piece pant sets for $19.98. Your choice. They carry PLUS sizes too. Also a full line of underwear and nursing bras.

The sign said their fashions are designed for a perfect fit. Also should mention they had a selection of fall fashions already.

I found baby name books, a book of 51 Secrets to Motherhood that all moms-to-be must have for $9.95 marked down from $16.

These were the funny things!! A chocolate peanut butter bar called "Oh Mama"!! And a nutrition bar for pregnancy called the "Belly Bar"! Then there was the "Preggy Pops" for morning sickness...where were those when I needed them? Also interesting was BebeSounds...you listen to the heartbeat, record and email it for $24.95!! What a concept!

All sale items are final, other items can be exchanged within 10 days for a store credit, no refunds or credit card returns.

Motherhood Maternity Outlet is located in Miromar Mall on Corkscrew Road.

I am sure all you moms-to-be will find lots of fashionable clothes in this store!
